A four year budget nearly spent in 3 months!

Paula Bennett: "To be honest we just had no idea, and that's part of
it. They're often hidden from us. "

Jenna Lynch: So more evidence the government completely underestimated
the Housing crisis . . .


I guess some motel owners will be very happy with the government -
budgeted $2 million a year, spending at rate of $30 million a year.

The government response - try to crack down on eligibility!!
